That being said, congrats your factory has officially grown to a large state. 4 cores will NOT be enough to run this game. If you look at htop or something you can see full cpu usage, I’m guessing you’ll see one core pinned at 100%
To understand how the server works, it chunks the entire game map and then shards that across available cores. So your 4 core server each core is handling a quarter of the map. That’s a lot of factory on one core kemosabe. My server is a 24 core beast with still very high single core rates. You can feel when you’re working on another core that has less load when you walk into a new area and your frame rate jumps.
My group has had several iterations of our server, from being on shared resources, to a 48 core thread ripper (plenty of cores but single clock speed wasn’t enough), to finally we bought a 5950x for our Update 8 factory - and even then you’re still going to notice some rubber banding when you get to late game/factory spans across the entire map big.
Now, thinking about it too, is this happening at intervals? If so, that’s your saves happening. As your saves get larger the auto save will take longer, and that means longer time the client doesn’t talk to the server, so it rubber bands your last known server positions. If it takes too long the client will disconnect. To fix this just update how long it is allowed before timing out, that’s on the dedicated server wiki. We usually call out when a save is about to happen and take it as a break to stand up, stretch, and get more coffee.
Beyond getting more cores and a higher single core clock speed, the other massive thing that will help is spreading your factory out. Allowing your factory to take advantage of multiple chunks and multiple cores will have a noticeable impact. Make very liberal use of trains, my last factory had over 60 rail lines and 100 trains running around. It’s a lot easier to manage a train car with 10,000 items stored as an integer than hundreds of miles of interconnected belts that it constantly has to shift around on.
I’ll have more info later, should probably write a wiki, but those few changes will have a noticeable impact.
Source, I’ve ran a dedicated satisfactory server for about 4 years now, on bare iron, docker, and in kubernetes. Helped many others set up their servers too
Now this is the niche content that makes Lemmy great. I’ve never really dabbled in multiplayer a lot as even though I have hundreds of hours, I never actually finished the whole thing, opting to start over every time I picked it back up.
Just wanted to thank you for your post, it was fun to read
For real, that was us. Megafauna are not viable anymore cause some hairless apes are going to throw stuff at the big target if its there. And apparently throwing stuff accurately is so OP that it took us to the top of the foodchain. Crazy.
I know this was mostly a joke comment, but Id like to add that the second main culprit were rapid enviromental changes after the last ice age. It cant be all pinned on humans.
Do you know how to get xinput to work with Sands of thyme? I bought the game on steam but it doesn’t recognize my 360 controller and mouse + keyboard is not ideal
So up until very recently, the monster hunter games had a theme of living in balance with the environment and monsters were only hunted to help control manageable numbers or if some had gone out of control. Then they were apparently specifically told to tone down their environmental messaging to appeal to a wider audience.
A word to the wise, as you say you don’t normally buy games - do double check whether your Mac is new enough for the game. I don’t know exactly how specs work on mac, but I would hazard a guess that anything older than, say, 2019, won’t be able to play it.
The Thief series are linear and awesome. The third game, Deadly Shadows are the easiest to get into (with an almost mandatory patch mod called Sneaky Upgrade) and if the story whets your appetite go back and play the others in order.
W sumie by mi się przydało, więc zaraz odpalę do testów Speech Note; github.com/mkiol/dsnote
Można zainstalować przez ‘sklep’ z aplikacjami w Ubuntu/Debianie wyszukując po nazwie, albo jak chcesz się poczuć bardziej hakersko - instalacja w terminalu:
flatpak install flathub net.mkiol.SpeechNote
Jeśli masz komputer z oddzielną kartą graficzną (GPU nvidia albo AMD) to warto doinstalować elementy do tego i tego i ją wykorzystać, bo to na pewno znacznie przyśpieszy działanie. Program Open Source, działa w całości lokalnie, ma nic nie wysyłać do internetu, więc znacznie bardziej prywatne niż używanie czegokolwiek online. Teoretycznie polski jest tam w pełni wspierany.
Na lekko złomotawym komputerze bez karty graficznej prędkością nie powala, dyktując powyższy komentarz musiałem poczekać ze 2 minuty aż go przemieli, ale wynik zaskakująco dobry. Jestem pod wrażeniem.
Po instalacji trzeba wejść w języki wyszukać polski i wybrać model językowy do ściągnięcia. Pierwszy z góry dał słabe efekty, ale faster whisper large v3 daje bardzo dobre wyniki.
A good chunk of the 3DS library. So many titles I haven’t gotten around to yet.
I need to eventually finish monster hunter iceborne and then play Rise! I have a feeling I’ll probably end up just jumping to wilds though. It’ll probably be hard to go back to older titles when that game releases.
The Yakuza series! I have only finished zero, 1 & 2. They release them faster than I’m getting to them lol.
I really want to tell you to give rise a try because the sunbreak expansion is absolute peak monster hunter, but I agree that february 28th release date is creeping up way too fast…
I want to try it so badly! I loved that they leaned into the Japanese themes and imagery, too. I think I’ll definitely have to make some time to play it.
I want to also play persona 3 for the first time, but it’s like 100 hours or so, and I look at that number and think, “That’ll take me 6 months to finish.” Haha maybe I’ll hermit myself inside the house this winter and smash it out in half that time
I’m not entirely sure, but I think Mirage on the App Store is a trial version with the ability to buy the full version, which is why it’s listed as free to play with micro transaction.
I’ve not played it yet but beyond all reason is a new rts that’s free and i don’t think it’s “free to play” free either but i might be wrong about that
